Profile
Managing your money can feel overwhelming. With priorities ranging from saving for retirement and paying for college to caring for aging parents and preparing for your own healthcare needs, there are many competing demands to balance. That’s where I come in.
My name is Colin Nicholson, and as a Merrill Financial Advisor, I work one‑on‑one with you to clarify your goals and develop a portfolio strategy designed to help you pursue them. I provide ongoing guidance, and as your life and circumstances change, we can adapt your strategy to help keep you on track.
About Me
Who am I

I have been with Merrill since 2017 and have been in Austin since 2019. Outside of work, I enjoy golfing, hiking with my dog, Miles, and volunteering in the Austin community. I also enjoy watching football and exploring new restaurants around Austin.

Effective wealth management starts with understanding you—your priorities, your values, and your full financial picture. Together, we build personalized strategies designed to adapt to changing market conditions, supported by the investment insights of Merrill and the banking and lending capabilities of Bank of America.

Our approach is centered on helping you pursue your goals with clarity, confidence, and a long‑term perspective.

In keeping with Merrill's deep‑rooted commitment to community, I actively volunteer with local organizations and believe strongly in giving back to the communities where we live and work.
